John 5:40-47 in English

⁴⁰ and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.

⁴¹ I receive not glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in yourselves.

⁴³ I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and the glory that cometh from the only God ye seek not?

⁴⁵ Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, on whom ye have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ Yet you refuse to come to me to have life.

⁴¹ “I don’t accept glory from men,

⁴² but I know you. I know that you don’t have God’s sincere love in you.

⁴³ I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t accept me, but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe when you accept glory from one another, and don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, who you have set your hope on.

⁴⁶ If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ If you don’t believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”

⁴⁰ And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

⁴¹ I receive not honour from men.

⁴² But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.

⁴⁶ For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ and ye will not come to me, that ye may have life.

⁴¹ I receive not glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in yourselves.

⁴³ I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe, which receive glory one of another, and the glory that cometh from the only God ye seek not?

⁴⁵ Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, on whom ye have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ But you refuse ◄to come to me/to believe my message► in order that you may have eternal life.

⁴¹ It does not matter to me whether people praise me.

⁴² But you want people to praise you. I know that within yourselves you do not love God.

⁴³ Although I have come to earth with my Father's authority MTY, you do not accept me. But if someone else comes with his own authority MTY, you accept him!

⁴⁴ You accept your praising each other, but you do not try to do things that will result in God himself praising you. So ◄there is no way you can believe in me!/how can you believe my message?► RHQ

⁴⁵ But do not think that I am the one who will accuse you while my Father is listening! No, it is Moses who will accuse you! You thought that he would defend you.

⁴⁶ Moses wrote about me, so if you had believed what he wrote, you would have believed what I said

⁴⁷ But because you did not believe what he wrote about me, ◄you will certainly not believe what I say!/how will you believe what I say?► RHQ”

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

⁴¹ I don’t receive glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

⁴¹ I don’t receive glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

⁴¹ I don’t receive glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that you don’t have God’s love in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in my Father’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses, on whom you have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

⁴⁰ And still you have no desire to come to me so that you may have life.

⁴¹ I do not take honour from men;

⁴² But I have knowledge of you that you have no love for God in your hearts.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.

⁴⁴ How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father: the one who says things against you is Moses, on whom you put your hopes.

⁴⁶ If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.

⁴⁷ If you have no belief in his writings, how will you have belief in my words?

⁴⁰ and ye will not come to me that ye might have life.

⁴¹ I do not receive glory from men,

⁴² but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe, who receive glory one of another, and seek not the glory which comes from God alone?

⁴⁵ Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one who accuses you, Moses, on whom ye trust;

⁴⁶ for if ye had believed Moses, ye would have believed me, for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye do not believe his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ And you will not come to me that you may have life.

⁴¹ I receive glory not from men.

⁴² But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I am come in the name of my Father, and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory one from another: and the glory which is from God alone, you do not seek?

⁴⁵ Think not that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one that accuseth you, Moses, in whom you trust.

⁴⁶ For if you did believe Moses, you would perhaps believe me also; for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?

⁴⁰ But you are unwilling to come to Me, so that you may have life.

⁴¹ “I do not receive glory from men.

⁴² But I have known you, that you do not have the love of God in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and do not seek the glory which is from the only God?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you—Moses, in whom you have hoped.

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would have believed Me; for he wrote about Me.

⁴⁷ But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”

⁴⁰ But you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.

⁴¹ “I do not accept glory from people.

⁴² Rather I have come to know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name and you do not receive me; should another come in his own name, him you will receive.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from men and do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Do not suppose that I will accuse you before the Father. Moses is the one who accuses you, on whom you have set your hope.

⁴⁶ Because if you really believed Moses you would believe me, because he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But since you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my sayings?”

⁴⁰ And yet you don't want to come to me so that you might live.

⁴¹ I'm not looking for human approval

⁴² —I know you, and that you don't have God's love in you.

⁴³ For I've come to represent my Father, and you won't accept me; but if someone comes representing themselves, then you accept them!

⁴⁴ How can you trust in me when you look for praise from one another and yet you don't look for praise from the one true God?

⁴⁵ But don't think I will be making accusations about you to the Father. It's Moses who is accusing you, the one in whom you place such confidence.

⁴⁶ For if you really trusted Moses you would trust in me, because he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But since you don't trust what he said, why would you trust what I say?”

⁴⁰ But ye will not come to me, that ye might haue life.

⁴¹ I receiue not the prayse of men.

⁴² But I know you, that ye haue not the loue of God in you.

⁴³ I am come in my Fathers Name, and ye receiue me not: if another shall come in his owne name, him will ye receiue.

⁴⁴ How can ye beleeue, which receiue honour one of another, and seeke not the honour that commeth of God alone?

⁴⁵ Doe not thinke that I will accuse you to my Father: there is one that accuseth you, euen Moses, in whom ye trust.

⁴⁶ For had ye beleeued Moses, ye would haue beleeued me: for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye beleeue not his writings, how shall ye beleeue my wordes?

⁴⁰ And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

⁴¹ I receive not honour from men.

⁴² But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.

⁴⁶ For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ and ye are not willing to come to me, that ye may have life.

⁴¹ I receive not honor from men;

⁴² but I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not; if another come in his own name, him ye will receive.

⁴⁴ How can ye believe while ye receive honor from one another, and seek not the honor that is from him who alone is God?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye have placed your hope.

⁴⁶ For if ye believed Moses, ye would believe me; for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But if ye do not believe his writings, how will ye believe my words?

⁴⁰ you refuse to come to me to have life.

⁴¹ “I do not receive honour from people,

⁴² but I know this of you, that you have not the love of God in your hearts.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe in me, when you receive honour from one another and do not desire the honour which comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have been resting your hopes.

⁴⁶ For, had you believed Moses, you would have believed me, for it was of me that Moses wrote;

⁴⁷ but, if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my teaching?”

⁴⁰ you refuse to come to me to have life.

⁴¹ “I do not receive honor from people,

⁴² but I know this of you, that you have not the love of God in your hearts.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe in me, when you receive honor from one another and do not desire the honor which comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; your accuser is Moses, on whom you have been resting your hopes.

⁴⁶ For, had you believed Moses, you would have believed me, for it was of me that Moses wrote;

⁴⁷ but, if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my teaching?”

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

⁴¹ I don’t receive glory from men.

⁴² But I know you, that you don’t have God’s agape ·unconditional love· in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in 'Avi ·my Father·’s name, and you don’t receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and you don’t seek the glory that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ “Don’t think that I will accuse you to Abba Father. There is one who accuses you, even Moses Drawn out, on whom you have set your hope.

⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses Drawn out, you would believe me; for he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ But if you don’t believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

⁴⁰ And yet will ye not come to me that ye might have lyfe.

⁴¹ I receave not prayse of men.

⁴² But I knowe you that ye have not the love of God in you

⁴³ I am come in my fathers name and ye receave me not. Yf another shall come in his awne name him will ye receave.

⁴⁴ How can ye beleve which receave honoure one of another and seke not the honoure that commeth of God only?

⁴⁵ Doo not thinke that I wyll accuse you to my father. Ther is one that accuseth you even Moses in whom ye trust.

⁴⁶ For had ye beleved Moses ye wold have beleved me: for he wrote of me.

⁴⁷ But now ye beleve not his writinge: how shall ye beleve my wordes.

⁴⁰ and you are not willing to come to me so that you may have life.

⁴¹ I do not receive praise from men,

⁴² but I know that you do not have the love of God in yourselves.

⁴³ I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me. If another should come in his own name, you would receive him.

⁴⁴ How can you believe, you who accept praise from one another but are not seeking the praise that comes from the only God?

⁴⁵ Do not think that I myself will accuse you before the Father. The one who accuses you is Moses, in whom you have put your hope.

⁴⁶ If you believed Moses, you would believe me, because he wrote about me.

⁴⁷ If you do not believe his writings, how are you going to believe my words?”

⁴⁰ Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life.

⁴¹ I take not clearness of men;

⁴² but I have known you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

⁴³ I came in the name of my Father, and ye took not me. If another come in his own name, ye shall receive him.

⁴⁴ How may ye believe, that receive glory each of other, and ye seek not the glory that is of God alone?

⁴⁵ Do not ye guess, that I am to accuse you with the Father; it is Moses that accuseth you, in whom ye hope.

⁴⁶ For if ye believed to Moses, peradventure ye should believe also to me; for he wrote of me.

⁴⁰ And (yet) ye will not come to me, (so) that ye (can) have (eternal) life.

⁴⁰ And ye wolen not come to me, that ye haue lijf.

⁴¹ Y take not clerenesse of men;

⁴² but Y haue knowun you, that ye han not the loue of God in you.

⁴⁵ Nyle ye gesse, that Y am to accuse you anentis the fadir; it is Moises that accusith you, in whom ye hopen.
